Why PipPrep beats generic 11+ revision

The 11+ isn't one test. Different schools use different formats, timings and question styles. PipPrep is built around that reality.

🏫

School-format detection

Enter your target school and PipPrep adjusts automatically. GL Assessment, CEM, ISEB Pre-test, or bespoke school papers - your child practises exactly what they'll face.

🤖

AI-marked creative writing

The English writing paper is the hardest part to practise at home. PipPrep's AI gives detailed, actionable feedback on each piece - not just a score.

📊

Parent dashboard

Track progress benchmarked against your target school's actual pass mark. See exactly which question types need more work.

🦜

Half the price of Atom Learning

Verbal Reasoning

Find the word that means the same as both words in each pair.

"trunk" can mean the same as luggage case and also the same as elephant's nose. What word means the same as both "fair" and "pale"?"

  • light
  • blond
  • white
  • clear
Answer: light - "light" works as a synonym for both "fair" (a light complexion) and "pale" (a light colour). This is a classic GL Assessment verbal reasoning "same meaning" question type.
Maths

A train leaves London at 09:45 and arrives in Birmingham at 11:12. The return journey takes 8 minutes longer. What time does the return train arrive back in London if it departs Birmingham at 13:30?

  • 14:57
  • 15:05
  • 14:53
  • 15:13
Answer: 15:05 - London to Birmingham = 11:12 - 09:45 = 1 hour 27 minutes = 87 minutes. Return = 87 + 8 = 95 minutes. 13:30 + 95 minutes = 13:30 + 1hr 35min = 15:05.

Common questions about 11+ practice apps

Answers to what parents ask most when choosing an 11+ prep tool.

PipPrep is purpose-built for the UK 11+. Unlike general revision apps or maths-only tools, it covers all four subjects and automatically detects the question format for your target school from 248 options. The combination of school-specific format detection, AI-marked writing, and gamified daily practice is hard to find in one place anywhere else.
Yes. PipPrep detects the specific format used by your child's target school - GL Assessment (used by most grammar schools), CEM (used by schools like Crossley Heath and King Edward VI), ISEB Pre-test (independent schools), and bespoke school papers. Just enter the school name and PipPrep adjusts the question style and timing automatically.
PipPrep is £19/month vs Atom Learning's £39.99/month. PipPrep adds AI-marked creative writing feedback (not available on Atom) and Habs Quest-format timed mocks. Both cover the four core 11+ subjects and offer parent dashboards. The main difference is price and the writing assessment feature.
Most families start 12-18 months before the exam date - typically in Year 4 or early Year 5. Earlier is better for building familiarity with question types, particularly verbal reasoning and NVR which aren't taught in the standard school curriculum. Starting in Year 5 is still workable, but the daily consistency matters more than the start date.
PipPrep has a free tier with no card required. You get access to all four subjects and can try questions across verbal reasoning, NVR, maths and English. The premium plan at £19/month adds unlimited questions, AI writing feedback, full timed mocks, and parent dashboard benchmarking.
